  • UK, depends who you talk to. Russian bots would have you believe everything is falling apart. London is also really expensive.

    I live on the south coast, even on minimum wage I have never struggled. As long as you can find stable employment you will have enough money to be comfortable. Honestly, I don’t even know what to spend my money on.

    Approx monthly bills, 900 mortgage (fuck you Liz truss), 175 council tax, 80 electricity, 120 food, 22 internet. Water is on a 6 month cycle and costs some mid 2 figure number each time so that is barely anything.

    So about 1300/month. That is for 2 of us, £650/month each, or £7800/year. Minimum wage is about £25k.
